Here's the most important part: > 3. The upper class, who wants to keep you mired in it I cannot stress enough how much division and polarization is driven by the wealthy who have a vested interest in sowing discord among the lower classes. The truth of the matter is that you, as a lower-income white person, have way more in common with a lower-income black person than a wealthy white person. Yet the amount of people who will vehemently oppose the very idea that the likes of Jezz Bezos and 8 other people pay slightly more taxes is mind-boggling. Republican-controlled state legislatures are busy passing laws to create wedge issues against trans people, gay people, womens' reproductive rights and so on. And it's nothing more than a method of control, of whipping up the base with issues most of the country actually doesn't care about. I really wish people were better at recognizing this manipulation as we've now progressed to the point where the #1 "news" show in the US is spreading straight up Nazi propaganda [1]. I don't mean that as a perjorative. It is quite literally Nazi propaganda. [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGb748VOcYU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGb748VOcYU
